Pool is an indoor/ outdoor pool , not separate. Not able to use bc of cold from outdoor part. Noise from highway. Heat/air clanking when trying to come up. Room never got cool. Carpet stained room. Fake eyelash found in towel. Breakfast ran out early everyday, didn't even get to see everything offered 1 hour before breakfast end time. Coffee/ tea not offered all day but stated on site that it will be in common areas. Bad smells in areas. Only offers 1 face towel and 1 washcloth for 3 guests. Always missing a towel as well.

Unbelieveably bad! New owners are taking a lovely facility and an amazing staff and are doing their best to make sure they have no return guests! Elevator not working upon departure and had to carry my luggage down 3 flights of stairs. No time of repair indicated! No soap in the shower soap containers. No bedspread! Waffle iron timer broken for first 2 days of my stay. Entrance automatic door got stuck and locked me out. I knocked hard on the door and other guests inside found the switch and activated it to make the door open! Guest snack for purchase shelves had been cleaned out by previous owners and not restocked! In spite of the lack of normal guest products and state of decline, I saw no bugs, so the staff is working very hard to do what they can. The staff is lovely. I hope they all find new jobs!!!! I feel for them.

My room was infested with roaches and the bed has bed bugs. I have videos and pictures. I tried to tell the staff, they all said they dont speak any english. My child and I didnt sleep due to the bugs every were, we sat up on the chair all night until we had to check out. They had no vending machines, no bottle water, the pool was empty, the smell was horrible, The only person was super nice was the girl at the front desk at 3am. She was so sweat and kind, but I was leaving to go to the airport. I would never recommend that hotel. Worst visit to Texas. I cried my entire stay. Oh and as far as the free breakfast, what was that? It gave we do not care about our hungry customers who payed to stay here. And the bugs that I killed on the bed why was they bleeding? I have never in my life killed a big flat looking bleeding bug. Grossed out and traumatizing for my child. Thanks for the horrible experience.
